Why We Curated This Specific Route
This is the ultimate “North India Starter Pack.” We designed this 5-day itinerary for travelers who want to see the best of culture and nature without spending weeks on the road.
The “Complete” Capital: Unlike rushed tours, we give you two full days in Delhi. You get to breathe in the history of the Mughals, the British, and modern India at a comfortable pace.
The “Sunrise” Advantage: We schedule the Taj Mahal visit at sunrise on Day 4. This ensures fewer crowds, better photos, and a cooler temperature before your drive to the jungle.
The Jungle Finale: Ending the trip in Ranthambhore allows you to unwind in nature after the chaos of the cities. Plus, the drop-off at a major railway station makes onward travel seamless.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can we visit Fatehpur Sikri?
Yes! On Day 4, Fatehpur Sikri is on the way to Ranthambhore. We can stop there for 1-2 hours. However, this will delay your arrival at the resort in Ranthambhore.
Can we upgrade to a Jeep (Gypsy) for the safari?
Yes. The package includes a Canter (20-seater bus). If you prefer a private 6-seater Gypsy, let us know in advance. It costs extra and sells out very fast (book 90 days ahead).
What are the chances of seeing a tiger?
Ranthambhore is one of the best places to see wild tigers. With a morning safari, your chances are good, but remember—they are wild animals, and sightings are never guaranteed!
How do we get back to Delhi from Ranthambhore?
The easiest way is by train from Sawai Madhopur (SWM). There are fast trains like the Kota Jan Shatabdi or August Kranti Rajdhani that reach Delhi in 4-5 hours. We can help you book these tickets.
Is the drive from Agra to Ranthambhore safe?
Yes, completely safe. The road passes through rural Rajasthan and small villages. It takes about 5 to 6 hours depending on traffic and stops.
Are mobile phones allowed in Akshardham?
No. Phones, smartwatches, cameras, and bags are strictly prohibited inside the Akshardham temple complex. There is a free cloakroom facility available.
